    This dude deserves to get in! He destroyed Honeyghan when everbody thought it was a mismatch at some point, was the Unified WBA/WBC and Lineal Welterweight Champion, the dude did more than enough to get in.

    Considering how long it took for some better fighters to get in, I'm not surprised Starling has been kept off the ledger.

    Personally, I have a stricter requirement for who should or should not be in the HOF, so I wouldn't consider Starling HOF worthy but considering the official criteria is pretty slack, he should definitely be in there and should have been there some years ago.

      Not really, Starlon time at the top was brief and unimportant. Him getting in wouldn't surprise me but it's no biggy if he doesn't.

        His signature win was the one against Mark Breland. A massive upset against a guy most, including me, expected to be boxings next big thing.

        I dont know if he should be in, but I do know that lesser fighters are in already.
